My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What fan do you use to cool your greenhouse?

19 years ago

I got a 8 X 6ft HFGH as an early Christmas present. My husband just finished putting it together and setting it all up for me. Today was the first day I would have got to use it and also the first day we have had sun in about 2.5 weeks. We also had outside temps in the mid 70's so things got hot in there, about mid 90's. And that was with the vent window and door left open all day.

What fan do others, who have a HFGH, use to keep things in the mid 70's? I have done an online search and there are so many out there I am not sure which one is best.

Thanks.

Elvira, my assistant, loved the heat! She didn't want to leave.
